★UK Inflation Holds Steady at 3% Before Iran War Impact
Strategic Analysis // Ian Gross
"This steady inflation figure offers a brief moment of calm, but it's a deceptive one. The real test for UK households and the Bank of England will come as geopolitical tensions, particularly from the Middle East, inevitably push energy and food prices higher. This means more pressure on consumer spending and potential interest rate decisions ahead."
